Fort Macleod Landscaping

Designing Around the Wind

Anyone who lives in Fort Macleod knows the wind. Environment Canada regularly issues wind warnings for the area with gusts of 100 km/h or more, and the town weather station has recorded gusts above 120 km/h during winter storms. Fences, pergolas and young trees all feel it.

That is why we plan Fort Macleod projects a little differently. Post depth and spacing, board layout, the direction a structure faces and where new planting goes all make a difference to how well a yard holds up over time.

Fence posts set with wind load in mind

Board spacing and layout chosen for exposed sites

Patios and seating placed in sheltered spots

Shrub and tree placement that adds shelter over time

Wind-Ready Fencing

Privacy fences and replacements built to handle exposed, gusty locations.

Sheltered Outdoor Space

Patios and decks positioned on the calmer side of the house, with screens where they help.

Hardy Lawns

Sod prepared on good soil and watered properly so it roots deeply and copes with drying winds.

A Growing Town

Homes Old and New

Fort Macleod grew by about 11 percent between the last two census counts and is home to roughly 3,300 people. You will find historic homes near the downtown core and newer houses on the edges of town, each with different needs.

Older properties often need a fence replaced or a tired lawn renewed, while newer homes may need the full yard built. We are happy to quote either, and we schedule Fort Macleod work in full days because of the drive west from Lethbridge.

Fort Macleod Landscaping Questions

Questions from Fort Macleod homeowners.

Do you work in Fort Macleod?

Yes. We take planned projects in Fort Macleod and nearby rural properties. Contact us with your address to confirm scheduling.

What type of fence holds up best in strong wind?

There is no single answer, but solid privacy fences catch the most wind, so post depth, post spacing and quality hardware matter. Some homeowners choose a design with small gaps between boards to reduce the load. We explain the options during the estimate. See our fence installation page for more.

Can a deck or pergola be built for a windy site?

Yes. Placement, height and how the structure is anchored all matter. We discuss these details before building any deck or overhead structure.

Will new sod survive the wind?

Wind dries new sod quickly, so watering in the first weeks is especially important. With good soil preparation and consistent watering, new sod establishes well.

Is travel included in the estimate?

Yes. Any travel cost for Fort Macleod is included in your written estimate before work begins.

"We hired GreenProlandscaping for a complete replace fence gate and installation. From the first consultation, [GreenProlandscaping /Hugo] listened carefully to our vision and gave great advice. he arrived on time, worked hard through tough weather, and paid incredible attention to detail. He cleaned up the workspace completely before leaving when fence gate was done and installed. The new fence gate looks amazing, came in right on budget, and was finished ahead of schedule. Highly recommend!"

Hugo was very easy to deal with. He listened carefully to what I wanted done in my yard and confirmed everything several times. We had half done in artificial turf and half done in gravel. The turf was laid professionally and looks amazing! I am so happy with the end result…beautiful soft green grass that ALWAYS looks awesome! Him and his team also did some chain link fence repairs and modifications. I feel all parts of the invoice were fair. I got good value for the money charged. An excellent job. Money well spent….and in this day and age that is important! Thanks to Hugo and his team for taking our yard from worst to first!!!😊👍🏻👍🏻

Greenpro did an amazing job making my dream yard come true. Low maintenance and something I can grow old with. Out of all the landscapers I spoke with, Hugo not only had the knowledge of installing artificial turf but took the time to explain to me the process and how it works especially with dogs and the potential odour. Throughout the job he communicated the plan and next steps. It was a big job, building a gate, pouring a walkway, building a large raised flower bed, gravel installation and artificial turf on a pie lot.

Hugo was amazing to work with! He had all the right equipment for the job, and everything went smoothly because of it. He even went above and beyond by helping make another project much easier just by being there and lending a hand. This definitely wasn't the type of job most people would want to tackle, but Hugo made it look easy. I would absolutely recommend him and his company to anyone looking for someone reliable, hardworking, and well-equipped. Thanks again, Hugo! We really appreciate all your help.

I would highly recommend “Green Pro Landscaping,” for their trustworthy integrity and their visionary pond landscaping. We were desperate to have a professional to rescue us from a pond job gone wrong. Hugo and Fidel were exemplary in their communication and determination to deliver incredible customer service. Hugo’s creativity in transforming our pond into a natural water setting was truly a gift. He produced a visual piece of art. Truly a masterpiece. We owe them both a debt of gratitude for their landscaping expertise. Thank you Hugo and Fidel for fulfilling our landscaping dreams.

We can’t thank Hugo and his crew enough for the amazing concrete sidewalk they poured down the side of our house. We had been struggling to find someone who would do this job for us, and Green Pro not only quoted us an extremely reasonable price, but also delivered exactly what we wanted done while exceeding our expectations. The work was completed quickly and professionally, and our property was left spotless afterwards. We would not hesitate to use Green Pro again for our future landscaping needs, and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality workmanship for a fair price. Thank you guys again!!

Hugo and his team did such a great job! They installed underground sprinklers and put new sod in my front yard and it looks amazing. The job was done quickly and the cost was very fair. He has gone above and beyond to ensure that i was satisfied with the project. It has been a pleasure to work with him and his team, and I would not hesitate to hire him for future work or recommend him to friends and family. Thank you Hugo!

I recently had Hugo and his team build a deck and do the front and back landscaping with irrigation and I couldn’t be happier with the result. Hugo was amazing to work with and answered any questions I had in a timely manner. If you’re looking for top notch work from a top notch team I would 100% recommend GreenPro.
